Question

what problems exsented in making of South African constitution

Answer 1

Before the adoption of the new Constitution for the country, Apartheid was the basic problem faced by south Africa.Apartheid is a policy or system of segregation or discrimination on grounds of race.The apartheid system was particularly oppressive for the blacks in South Africa. Though they were the natives and were the majority, yet they were forbidden from living in white areas. They could work in white areas only if they had a permit. Trains, buses, taxis, hotels, hospitals, schools and colleges, libraries, cinema halls, theatres, beaches, swimming pools public toilets, were all separate for the whites and blacks. This was called segregation. They could not even visit the churches where the whites worshipped. Blacks could not form associations or protest against the terrible treatment. It was abolished in South Africa officially in 1990 with repeal of the last of the remaining Apartheid laws, the end of Apartheid is widely regarded as arising from the 1994 democratic general elections being held. This was followed by the drafting of the new Constitution of the country thus. restoring democracy.
